| Henley Arts Trail | May 2-4, 2026 | 10am - 5pm | Dolphin School and Stanlake Park | There are two venues in Hurst at Dolphin School and Stanlake Park. This year, the 20th anniversary, we are encouraging a bit more walking, so the two Hurst venues have joined with the two central Twyford venues to put a walking route together. If you visit all four (whether on foot, bicycle or car), and get a stamp, you will be put into a draw to win a goodie bag of items donated by the artists. Please come along to browse, chat or to find a perfect piece for your home. If you need any more information take a look at the website https://www.henleyartstrail.com/ | |
